  • Sounds like pandering

    I know Astead is trying to share with us the thoughts and feelings of real live people out there that bow down to Trump, but it comes across as pandering He should listen to the BBC when they grill people on their interpretations of politics and facts and challenge them in greater depth.

  • Crazy

    I don’t understand why you give a platform for the crazy conspiracy theorists to spread their craziness… it just increases the anxiety level for everyone else.

  • “Cease Fire Now”

    It was heartening to hear the young activists in Charleston and Mayor Hammoud of Dearborn. Their moral compasses are so clear. However, Joe Biden’s callous dismissal of any concern leaving Afghanistan so abruptly should tell us that the “empathy” Joe is known for is really a charade.

  • Astead Herndon is the best!

    Mr Herndon provides the most clear, concise explanations of the political landscape. Sometimes it’s discouraging, sometimes hopeful but always with great insight. When he does an interview it is always respectful, but he gets right to the point and is so quick to recalibrate and/or pose questions in a new way when needed. My favorite NYT reporter!
